I write this in jest but for what you write (and as you have made comparison to ntl which has a multi-million cust base) must be wrong.
Not wrong and a worldwide customer base, worldwide selling Software company (serif), maybe not as many staff as NTL, but not half as many problems either. We just work our A*ses off. Even if we have X times less customers than NTL, I bet they have a higher ratio of staff per customer and we STILL get the phone answered quicker on average.
